Now, Xu Xiangbei, the smartest one, has some understanding of Xu Jinning's character.
He felt that during those fifteen years, the hateful Lin couple had raised Ningning astray.
This "crooked" does not mean that Xu Jinning has been spoiled.
It's just that Xu Jinning was raised to be too kind and sensitive. He lacked self-confidence and became inferior. Because he was afraid of getting hurt, he pretended not to care. Because he was afraid of being scolded and of bad results, he was unwilling to try at the beginning and was timid.
Xu Xiangbei felt sorry for Xu Jinning.
But he doesn't want his younger sister to continue like this. He hopes that his younger sister will be confident, sunny and positive.
That's why he guided and encouraged Xu Jinning in this way.
Hearing Xu Xiangbei's words, Xu Jinning was a little stunned.
She knew that there were some issues with her character.
Although he claims to be optimistic and insensitive, he does not want to be hurt, so he pretends not to care and pretends not to know, disguising himself as a sensible and well-behaved child.
In her previous life, she would pretend, but now, after coming to the Xu family and realizing her family's love and care for her, she doesn't want to pretend anymore, so she gradually reveals her true character.
She wanted to know, with such a sensitive personality and such bad habits, would her parents, brothers and sisters still love her?
Now, listening to the young man's encouragement and guidance, Xu Jinning suddenly became enlightened.
Maybe she should change. Knowing that she is not good enough, she should work hard to become better.
She doesn't want to live like she did in her previous life, so she shouldn't be timid anymore. If she wants something and wants to go, she should express it bravely.
At this time, Zhang Ailian came over, put her arm around Xu Jinning's shoulders, patted her gently, and said, "Ningning, mother can see that you want to go."
When talking about catching fish, Zhang Ailian noticed that the little girl's eyes were shining.
She knew that the little girl wanted to go.
"If you want to go, just go. Don't worry about it."
"Don't worry about whether you can catch them or how many you can catch."
"Don't feel stressed. Our family doesn't need to rely on a few fish to survive. Just think of it as having fun and experiencing new things. Don't feel any burden."
"Yes." Xu Aiguo also said, "Even if you don't catch the last fish, as long as you are happy and joyful when catching fish, that's enough. Mom and Dad will be happy too."
"That's it. The most important thing in doing anything is to be happy."
"Relax, as long as you do it with all your heart, you can accept the result no matter what it is."
The comfort from his family members made Xu Jinning's heart very warm.
It also caused a sudden surge of strength in her heart, encouraging her to move forward courageously!
"Yes, I understand."
Xu Jinning's spirits lifted, his voice even rose a little, and his eyes lit up, "Mom and Dad, Big Brother, Little Brother, I want to go fishing, I want to go with you!"
"Haha, that's right, that's how it should be!"
…
"Hello, hello, ahem, team members, can you hear me? Now let me interrupt with a notice: Tomorrow morning at nine o'clock, our Qinghe Production Team will start the annual Qinghe fishing activity. It will last for three days, from nine in the morning to four in the afternoon every day, and each household can send three people to participate..."
“The fish market also starts at the same time and lasts for three days.”
"The price of fish will be unified. The prices of large fish, medium fish, and small fish are..."
Early the next morning, the captain's voice was heard on the village radio.
As soon as this broadcast came out, the originally suppressed atmosphere and enthusiasm of the entire Qinghe Production Team suddenly boiled over.
Everyone informed each other, and each household had already decided which three people would go down to the river to catch fish.
When they heard about the fish market, they could buy and sell fish, which meant that if other production teams wanted their fish, they could buy them with money.
Everyone was happier and more passionate, and everyone wanted to catch more fish.
So that we can sell them and make more money! - The next morning, the Qing River was already crowded with people. It could almost be described as a sea of people.
Not only were there people from the Qinghe Production Team here, but also people from several nearby production teams.
Of course, they couldn't go fishing in the river with the people from the Qinghe Production Team, but they could watch and feel the atmosphere.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
And if they see a good fish, they can buy it directly.
You know, the fish at the Qinghe Production Team’s fish market are very popular every year.
Perhaps because of the good water quality of Qinghe River, the fish here are very fresh. Whether they are fried, boiled, pan-fried, or made into fish soup, they are all very fresh and delicious.
Not only did people from several nearby production teams want to eat it, but even their relatives in the city told them in advance and asked them to buy it at the fish market, even if the price was a little higher. After all, it was not easy to eat fish in the city, especially such good fish.
"Time's up, get down to the river!"
As the time came, the captain gave an order and the prepared people went down to the river carrying various tools.
Those who couldn't go into the river were cheering them on from the shore.
Xu Jinning naturally went into the river as well.
Unlike others who rolled up their trouser legs and walked barefoot into the river, Xu Jinning was wearing rain boots.
This was bought specially for Xu Jinning by Xu Aiguo for her fishing trip to the river.
It is just the beginning of spring, the weather is still relatively cold, and the river water is naturally cold as well.
Xu Aiguo and Zhang Ailian were afraid that Xu Jinning's feet would be soaked in the cold river water, and the cold air would penetrate into her, making her sick and causing bad health.
Even cold air entering the body may affect fertility.
So the two of them prepared rain boots for Xu Jinning.
In this era, few people have considered this point. Perhaps because of this, some people might even think it is pretentious to see Xu Jinning going down to the river wearing rain boots. After all, other women going down to the river are also barefoot.
It was cold when we first entered the river, but as time went by we got used to it.
Besides, as long as you can catch fish, cold feet don’t matter.
Xu Jinning was touched by her parents' concern for her health and did not refuse. Wearing rain boots and holding a basket, she followed her older and younger brothers into the river amid the envious, puzzled or disdainful looks of others.
"Ningning, just stay with us. Don't touch the fish with your hands. The water is cold, so just use a basket to scoop them out. It doesn't matter whether you can catch them or not."
"Also, don't bend over all the time, it will cause back pain. If you feel tired, be sure to tell us and then go ashore to rest."
